Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

In order to create a productive and engaging learning environment for our students in the 5th grade Dual Language Immersion program, we are seeking funding to provide essential supplies that are crucial for their academic success. Our project aims to equip students with highlighters, folders, storage bins, and headphones, ensuring they have the necessary tools to excel in their studies. These supplies will not only support their learning but also foster organization, concentration, and active participation in classroom activities.

We are committed to providing our students with the resources they need to thrive academically and personally.

However, many of our students come from underprivileged backgrounds and may not have access to basic school supplies at home. This project aims to bridge this gap and empower our students to reach their full potential.

Highlighters will help students annotate texts, identify key information, and enhance their comprehension of academic materials. Folders are essential for organizing handouts, assignments, and important documents, promoting a structured approach to learning and homework completion.

Storage bins will provide students with a designated place to store their supplies, reducing clutter and ensuring they have easy access to their materials during class. Headphones are vital for students to engage in audio-based learning activities, listen to educational videos or tutorials, and minimize distractions during independent work. The composition books allow students to be able to to dive deeper in to note taking while truly comprehending content.

Our 5th grade class is 60 students this year. Your support for this project will make a significant impact on our students' educational journey and contribute to their overall success.

Thank you for considering our project. With your generous contribution, we can ensure that our students are equipped for success in their academic pursuits and beyond.
